The main reason for LZ's victory over SKT is that Khan is the tactical breakthrough point. In the early stage, the main rhythm was the road, but it also benefited from the powerful combination of PraY and gorilla, the only two-person road combination that could suppress Bang and Wolf.
In fact, SKT has spent a lot of time to solve this problem, and the rotation of away games can fully show that they are also aware of the team's shortcomings. I believe that if this problem can be solved, S7 won the championship.
Second place: Dragon Ball
The Dragon Ball team finally won a championship five years after its establishment and beat SKT in the final. You know, LZ is the only team that can beat SKT in the domestic finals. (In the past, as long as SKT entered the finals, it won without exception. )
There are Khan dug from LSPL in LZ, and the strongest two-way combination "Gorilla" and "Prayer" in the world. However, this team still has obvious shortcomings, that is, the players in the team are young and have little competition experience. However, as long as you don't meet SKT before the final, you are still the only one who can make it to the final.
Third place: Samsung Galaxy
Like last year, Samsung still entered the S-tournament as the third seed in China, but it is worth mentioning that this is the second consecutive year that Samsung has entered the S-finals from the bubble tournament.
The strength of the Samsung team is obviously weaker than the top two, for the simple reason. The performance of the single crown in the second half of the season is very chaotic, and Cuvee alone is not among the top strengths of South Korea. Smeb and Marin are still first-class players.
SSG usually enters the sleepwalking stage in the middle of the game, destroying the advantages gained in the early stage. It turns out that this is not a team that is good at playing late. Without the support of CoreJJ, SSG may not make it to the final of S7.
Fourth place: TeamWE
We haven't entered the S series for many years, but with the stability and gradual improvement of the team members, we finally completed his self-salvation this year-successfully advanced to the third seed team of the S series through one BO5 after another.
In fact, we have many tactics and enough methods to deal with our opponents, and a stable lineup for a season has also given them tacit cooperation that other teams do not have. The most important thing is that the WE team performed well in the later period. Of course, this is due to the "mystery" of China's top advertisements. Therefore, even if we didn't successfully establish an advantage in the early stage, we can still rely on the wonderful team battle in the later stage to complete the comeback.
Fifth place: Royal never gives up.
Since the debut of 20 13, Jian Zihao has been a world-renowned top ADC, but most people are not familiar with the team's Zhong Dan Tiger. "Tiger Head" grows very fast, from the debut of TGA to the perfect promotion of 20 17 summer competition, it is only a short time before and after.
Because their double C's "Jian Zihao" and "Tiger" are extremely capable of carrying, this team has been given double insurance in disguise. As long as one C can get up, the team can win. Although they didn't win the championship in the final of LPL, it is undeniable that their performance in the final is still the "top" level in the world, and they attach great importance to tactics and strategies.
Of course, if they cooperate more tacitly and deal with group battles more flexibly, they will go further.
Sixth place: Solomide team
TSM is the only team that has participated in all S competitions, but TSM was involved in the death group in the previous two years and did not enter the knockout stage. I don't know whether TSM is ready to deal with this year, whether it is to repeat the same mistakes or break through the encirclement, and it is entirely in its own hands.
It is worth mentioning that "Bjergsen", a single player in the team, is a talented player with the charm of four pits Faker. But at this year's S7, can "Bjergsen" lead other teammates to rewrite the history of TSM? We might as well wait and see.
Seventh place: G2 esports
The debate about who is stronger between TSM and G2 is always the focus of the topic, because the two teams are really similar. Both teams are basically much better than other teams in North America and Europe, mainly in controlling the team battle.
Both sides rely on singles to a great extent, and are better at using the enemy's mistakes to turn them into their own advantages, thus snowballing.
G2 is more powerful than TSM in that their combination is stronger, but G2 puts more energy into the middle. Teammates often have to give up their own development and take singles as a breakthrough. At this point, TSM's Bjergsen is just the opposite. He often uses his own advantages to help his teammates release pressure.
Eighth place: Edward Gambling
Although EDG won the championship in the final of LPL, in fact, teams with stronger LPL often lost in BO5, which is a wonderful question worth thinking about. (The following paragraph is the evaluation of foreign media, without any impersonal emotions. )
From the perspective of personal strength, the last mouse often becomes the enemy's breakthrough, and the rout also starts from the road, even at the level of 1, which tends to be inferior; Clearlove is old, and neither operation nor reaction is at its peak. What's more, Li Qing has been enhanced in the game version used by S7, which is even more bad news for Clearlove. ADC“iBoy "is just a novice with only a few months' experience, and the high-level competition experience is zero; It seems that the field is the only main force of this team.
Therefore, for EDG, winning the LPL championship is more like a miracle. (Foreign media evaluation)
Ninth place: Flash Wolf
In LMS, Lightning Wolf won the championship four times and entered the S series for the third time. Unfortunately, due to the introduction of 10ban system, the choice of heroes is more flexible, so the overall strength of the team has dropped by a grade because of the shallow hero pool.
Not only that, during the summer sports meeting, the maple leaf in the thigh of the team also performed poorly, so it was not optimistic in the S7 competition. It is worth mentioning that the assistant SwordArT in the team is not only the best assistant of LMS, but also tends to become the first assistant in the world.
Tenth place: immortal
IMT is more like a brother team of Dragon Ball. First of all, from the lineup, the flame and ADC Cody Sun are like the epitome of LCK Khan and blessing. With the advantage of Korean aid, they can often crush the enemy in North American competitions, and these two talented players are not the only ones on the team.
Captain Xmithie is a senior task with many years of competition experience. In last year's mid-season invitational tournament, Xmithie's performance perfectly suppressed CLG's singles. With the addition of Flame this year, IMT may become one of the most successful western teams.
Conclusion:
What do you think of such foreign media rankings, summoners? Lying and watching, sitting and watching, or going to CC planet to find a beautiful woman to watch together?
